I don't know what I think is more pathetic, a parent who doesn't feel that they need to educate their child in responsible net community behaviour, or a parent who decides to have a verbal stoush with a bunch of 14 year olds.

Here's a few tips: Firstly, teach your kid that plagiarism isn't acceptable. Give credit where credit is due, this is an online community that thrives on its creativity - something which should be strongly encouraged in young people - are you going to allow your child to pass off other people's work at school? Being a part of a wider community means you have some responsibilities. Parent responsibly, instead of using the internet as a babysitting tool, why don't you try to teach your kid simple netiquette?

Secondly, why don't you teach your darling, *intelligent* daughter some manners? Calling someone/thing "gay" is akin to bigotry. You wouldn't attack someone on the colour of their skin, hair, or eyes. Teach her to use intelligent insults that don't include the use of the denigration of other communities.

Thirdly, your threats are empty. Outside of fraudulent activities, hacking, and the trading of obscene materials, the internet is pretty much lawless. Learn to deal with that fact. Teach your kid to deal with that fact. Posting an IP address is about as effective as pissing in the wind. Authorities would simply laugh in your face.

Finally, both you & your kid did something that, in this community, is considered bad manners. Instead of simply accepting this fact, having a teensy bit of humility in accepting you did wrong and apologising for the faux pas, you decide to square off with a bunch of pissed off teenagers. I wonder who's more mature in this instance? And what exactly are you teaching your daughter with this behaviour?

This has gone far enough. Like I mentioned, give credit where credit is due. Accept the wider community has etiquettes that are beyond your understanding. Then dry your eyes, princess. Like Zdestiny said, get over it.

Oh, and by the way. I know you're from the United States, and this concept of might be beyond you, but I do think it's slightly ironic that *intelligent* daughter wishes to have credit for her layout, then derides those who call her on her uncredited use of an icon.

Yes, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States of America. Don't keep saying cities & states like everyone else should understand every city in the US. There is life east of New York, West of California, and south of Florida, you know.

Sense. And the message was to your mother, I wouldn't expect you to understand multisyllabic words. In fact, I don't even know if I should expect your mother too, either.

Oh, forgive me, I must have misunderstood that whole bit of that post not making any *sence*. If your mother was smart, she'd be parenting you in responsible net behaviour.

You're only blocking us because you are running out of comebacks and because you just don't want to taste the bitter truth which is: You are a liar. You did not make that icon, and we all know it. So stop kidding yourself obi-wan.

i think that you must be uber STUPID if your smiling at a time like this (considering your trying to fight a loosing battle, if this was in a court baby, you'd be going down). But saying that, i am also smiling, but i would say its for a different reason

I am very responsible. I made class president in 5th, 6th, and 7th grade and it's all about responsibility and I believe I have that because i've been class president for 3 straight years and I do responsible things at home and the community.

Just because you can win a popularity contest, doesn't mean you're smart. Look at your president, for one.

Wow, an entire grade, I'm impressed. So, tell me, exactly why is it that you feel the need to bignote yourself instead of just having a teeny tiny bit of humilty, accepting you did wrong, and apologising to these young ladies? Do I have to parent you in all this now? Because I'm starting to feel like I'm about to match wits with a cheesegrater

What do you mean parent me in all this now? I'm sorry but I can't say that I didn't make something that I made.

Holy crap ana, longest post in history? And you expect me to read it? Come now, we all not I'm not THAT non-lazy.
_anapants_[info]_anapants_ on October 11th, 2005 10:34 pm (UTC)
you dont have to read it on account of you were there ;)
Hi I'm Daisy![info]cali_isil on October 10th, 2005 11:08 am (UTC)
I second that longest post ever but I did read it word for word. Thanks for the tinkerHell credit :P I was hella proud of it

"Posting an IP address is about as effective as pissing in the wind."

-laughs insanely- Y'all never cease to amaze me.

....Wait. There's life outside of New York?
Sarah[info]iamyourmother on October 10th, 2005 11:57 am (UTC)
In respects to bonding moments, this was way better than explaining periods and shopping for bras
Hi I'm Daisy![info]cali_isil on October 11th, 2005 05:38 am (UTC)
Hah! I've never been in the position to explain in depth about periods to anyone.. except maybe to that pitiful grade 7 boy who was worried about getting his. :O
Sarah[info]iamyourmother on October 10th, 2005 12:36 pm (UTC)
So anyway, I've been doing some research....
...because you know how much CSI & Law'n'Order I watch & my being an armchair investigator type person, & I think I may have come up with conclusive proof on the ownership of making icon thingo.

It all lies with the accounts. With the judge's discretion, I shall now table up exhibit A:

iamyourmother's account 6782383 was created on the 13th April 2005. This is the day said journal diarist type person decided to make her daughter's life a living hell by posting embarassing things about her. It was a good day for all.

_anapants_'s account (6942305) was created on the 27th April 2005.

And yea, we can confirm that cheesymite's account (5122058) was created on the 12th November 2004 (this is an important bit of datum the import of which will be made apparent during testimony later).

The speaker for the opposition also wishes the judge to consider the next item of proof, Exhibit B:

mommys_journal's (oh god, I can't even begin to shudder about that grammatical horror) was created on the 9th October 2005, account number 8496729.

TinkerHELL's (giggle giggle) journal, 811230, was thusly created on the 24th August 2005.

At this juncture, your Worship, I wish to call on an expert witness, one Ms Sarah Eloise Darcy, a delightfully charming innercity Brisbanite in her late twenties, a reservations agent for a major international airline, a mother to one _anapants_ and fiancee to one _pookie_au_. It is generally thought that Ms Darcy is a person of good character. Ms Darcy, please take the stand.

(Ms Darcy appears, wearing a tasteful ensemble not entirely unlike this season's Prada. She is well coiffed, perfectly manicured, and wearing dark sunglasses. She is the epitome of style and elegance. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that she's a lardarse, you'd probably mistake her for a Vogue model. But we digress. Back to the testimony as she takes the stand....)
's
Ms Darcy: I, Sarah Eloise Darcy, of Spring Hill, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, solemnly declare that, at the time of cheesymite's journal, nearing the end and just before the creation of the _anapants_ journal, I witnessed the use of said icon (icon, one humourous "Johnny Depp in PotC clobber) during this time. I remember the icon well as I thought it was quite humourous and that I thought _anapants_ had created it, but nay, I can verily attest to the fact that my daughter, said _anapants_ was, at this time, not familiar with photoshop and had mentioned that a friend of hers had created it for her. I am not familiar with the friend in question, as I only ever pay attention to my daughter's friends when they have cute puppies or when they've attempted to punch the class bully out. The icon in question was well into use before the offending persons had claimed it as their own.

(Ms Darcy leaves the stand, a gasping crowd in her wake. How can someone be so stylish and not have devoped a Kate Moss coke habit?)

Your Worship, you now have all the evidence for consideration before you. However, one last piece of evidence is lacking, this is the date of the actual creation of said icon. If the creator, the anonymous friend of Ms Darcy's fabulously talented, unique, and gorgeous daughter would open up the icon, click on the properties of said icon, and take a screenshot, this would definitely show the creation date of said icon as a date from sometime in April or June of 2005, well before the use and alleged creation of the offending individuals in question.

Your Worship, I wish to rest my case, and retire to the couch where I will have a nice cup of tea & flick through the telly channels. Thank you for hearing our case.

Hi I'm Daisy![info]cali_isil on October 11th, 2005 05:34 am (UTC)
-Tee hee!

I wish I was there too.. that would have been awesome.

when they've attempted to punch the class bully out.
Was this a refrence to the one and only Gabby?
Sarah[info]iamyourmother on October 11th, 2005 12:16 pm (UTC)
Yep, t'would. Ain't she adorable? Almost as good as Ana punching out that boy who tried to kiss her in grade 4.
Hi I'm Daisy![info]cali_isil on October 13th, 2005 11:04 am (UTC)
You've got to love gabby.. Getting suspended for a day and spending it in a nice air conditioned room doing nothing while the rest of the school worked in the heat and sun. I'd swing a punch at Brianna for that.


Ana punched someone in grade 4 who tried to kiss her?! -gasp-

Wow. I can actually see a miniture version of ana doing so.. although the minature version being roughly my height now.
The truth is out Aaaaa-na!
